I look forward to this. Long, long ago I actually wrote a Star Trek episode for one of James Cowley's excellent productions, but the window had closed on script submissions. I may publish it on TDL sometime if there is interest.

Ride forth, O Coppery One. We look forward to seeing new ink here. Which, I must say, is something I'm up to as well in my new Narnia story "Harrod's Bend".

Congrats on your return. We look forward to your writing.

So Ilya has more than one appendix? Messy business that, especially if they get inflamed.

Welcome back to thee, of Phox of Copper! ;-)

Coming soon as part of a revived and renewed NarniaFansCast, "Harrod's Bend, or Otterly Narnia". A gentle, reverent sitcom that follows the misadventures of otter Ripley Pond as he leaves Cair Paravel to take up residence in the backwater village of Harrod's Bend. You'll laugh--guaranteed--but...

Truth be told, Hollywood only ever made 25 movies total. Only 25. They have been subject to endless remakes with the title and main character names changed to match a variety of books. Look at the Universal Studios horror movies of the early 20th century. They take a man looking for ultimate...

Orange corgis as oompa-loompas, even down to the silly song advice.

I did have the honor of posting the first comment on your article. Well written and worth a read.

I AM COMPOSING THIS AS I GO AS AN EXERCISE IN WRITING UNDER PRESSURE. WHEN IT RAINS IN THE WOOD BETWEEN THE WORLDS There is a wood which is no world, yet is all worlds as sure as none And in that silent windless grove there runs a path, a pleasant path that winds its winsome way around the...

IN PASSING Karl stood silently outside Moshe's Tool and Die Company for a very long time. In the weathered and worn back streets of Haifa, his mind reeled with the ghosts of life changing moments. But where to go from there, down the shabby avenues of the shadowlands? Where is worth going, and...

THE MEETING Karl worked up courage to knock. He rapped on the door gently, then with more force. The door was answered by a lovely otter lass. "Can I help you?" "Emily? Is that you??" "Yes sir. I'm afraid you have the advantage..." "Don't you know me? It's daddy..." “This must be a...

MANY QUESTIONS The two strangers withdrew a safe distance before they spoke together. It would not do for Mr. Otter to be seen talking to himself. "I could spend the rest of my days here," Karl said at last. "I'm tempted to let the Sacred Adamah do its work, even if I eat fish stew for the...

ARRIVAL It was a fine spring day in Farthingdale, as it always is. Karl looked about at the quaint wattle and daub buildings lining the cobblestone street. The neighborhood was rustic and lovely and surrounded him like a warm hug. Yet it was the village folk who held his attention. A stately...

THE KNIGHT Karl couldn’t help but stare at the strange, tall figure who now stood before him. He had long flowing locks and a beard whiter than snow. He was dressed in rich saffron and crimson silks with a gold and silver breastplate and rich purple cape rimmed with gold stitched characters...

HAIFA Holcan could take him as far as Haifa, Israel. Which seemed like a poor substitute for Farthingdale as Karl and Holcan stood before a nondescript run-down building, "Moshe's Tool and Die Co." Karl looks in one of the barred windows and through the dusty panes can see large equipment. A...

THE VISION The disheveled man sitting on a bench in Kelvin Park no longer skipped across Autumn meadows, he only hunted for answers to questions that eluded his grasp. Once he knew where he would be in five- or ten-years time. He knew so much. Now his only wisdom was that he knew nothing at...

THE PILGRIMAGE Or There and Back Again PRELUDE Once upon a time there was a child named Karl; a child whom time and tides stole bit by bit and left in his place someone who was not childish at all, but neither was he childlike. Beneath the fine cut of his three-piece suit dwelt a terrible...

This story was written for my good friend Joseph (Copperfox) and allows two characters of his creation to enter the Realm of Farthingdale that was featured in "The Visitor". It is, to the best of my knowledge, fully keeping in canon with the original. There will be other Realm stories in the...

Yeah, I have that same feeling about the bloated (oh, I meant EXPANDED) Star Wars universe. And don't get me started about the direct to video Disney Sequel craze. I think it stems from two things... (1) the existential lack of belief in CATHARSIS, i.e. "Happily Ever After" in which an evil is...
